Can I get the circuit board from the explorers film? The one that makes waltzers fly?

Do note, that this circuit board printer is by no means meant to replace the industry standard. It'll work for low-frequency applications (probably in the same range as the common op amps) but parasitic capacitance and higher resistances are to be expected.

Doom-sayer stuff aside, I want one!  :yes:
